2 Years into the Pandemic: What Did We Learn About the COVID-19 and Cerebellum?
Article in Cerebellum (London, England), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Highly contagious pandemic due to novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 has significantly affected humankind. At the onset of the pandemic, it was believed that it primarily affects the respiratory and hematological system, and has minimal influence on the human brain, even less so on the cerebellum. It was thought that the effects of a pandemic on cerebellar disorders would be the same as it would affect any other chronic neurological disease. It turned out that our understanding of the effects of COVID-19 on the cerebellar system was premature. Over the last 2 years, we appreciated many diverse and direct effects of COVID-19 on cerebellar function. SARS-CoV-2 affects the cerebellum via direct viral invasion, but even more so through its effects on immune, hematological, and metabolic pathways. Increasing evidence suggested the indirect effects of COVID-19 on preexisting chronic cerebellar disease due to lack of in-person care and social isolation. This editorial concisely summarizes critical literature on COVID-19 and the cerebellum published over the last 2 years.
